Spread option is un-NFL and passe

[Glenn]

"intellectually dishonest"

[Wilfredo Ledezma]

Pro-style offenses have gotten MSU nowhere, for the record.

Nonetheless, the fact that the spread-option does not prepare kids for the NFL seems to be a fairly accepted notion.

The flipside is that the gaudy numbers that players in these offenses put up oftentimes gets them drafted higher than they typically might have been, depending on position, of course.

I think bukdow is trying to make this into a racial argument. (a la Rush Limbaugh, Donovan McNabb)

[Glenn]

I don't. I think it's another weak attempt to bash the mighty DickRod

I don't. I think it's another weak attempt to bash the mighty DickRod

Why is today the first time I've ever seen that? Maybe I don't pay attention enough because it's too good to have taken this long to find it.

pat white is a first rounder, but for rich rodriguez? get some stats behind you, clown.

It never ceases to amaze me the lengths some of you will go to defend anything that has a glimmer of maize and blue on it. Learn to accept some things, otherwise you end up looking like a fool. Are you really arguing against the fact that spread option players are less likely to get drafted/be prepared for the NFL?

Open a book, talk to somebody in the know, ANYTHING. Please!

Got them to two bowls (JLS's spread didn't). Got them some serious talent coming in. Got them ranked more than not last year. Got them wins in games they were "supposed to win" when other systems didn't in the past. Got them a better record than Michigan. Got them a win in the big house.

And they are two years and a game in idiot. "Wait until Dantonio gets his players!" LOL. Once again Michigan fans choose to ignore and discredit that which got them their "glorious history" that they love to tell us about.

Yeah Bukdow! Look at how high Graham Harrell and his 97 touchdowns were drafted!

Meanwhile cough Brian Hoyer (and his numbers) cough gets drafted and becomes the Pats #2 QB behind former Michigan Pro Style Qb Tom Brady.
